So while there is an initial cost (more requests), you're also allowing your sites files to come down faster because they aren't waiting on the telerik chunks to D/L from your domain as they're coming from teleriks domain in parallel</div><div><br /></div><div>2) Doesn't spend my bandwidth downloading them :)</div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div>urn:uuid:b3f4cfe5-e42a-406c-bcf1-8286f44f8424http://www.telerik.com/forums/permalink/5c_0syrkbEC88YKG9E-EJADoes the benefit of using a CDN outweigh the cost of making all these HTTP request?<div><div><br /></div><div>I've enabled the CDN support.</div><div><br /></div><div>Unfortunately look at all the http request that get generated on one of my pages.</div><div>I used to have enable styles and javascript files set to true, but with the CDN, that's ignored.</div><div><br /></div><div>Does the benefit of using a CDN outweigh the cost of making all these HTTP request?</div><div><br /></div><div># http://aspnet-skins.telerikstatic.com/ajaxz/2009.3.1208/Menu.css</div><div># http://aspnet-skins.telerikstatic.com/ajaxz/2009.3.1208/Default/Menu.Default.css</div><div># http://aspnet-skins.telerikstatic.com/ajaxz/2009.3.1208/Splitter.css</div><div># http://aspnet-skins.telerikstatic.com/ajaxz/2009.3.1208/Vista/Splitter.Vista.css</div><div># http://aspnet-skins.telerikstatic.com/ajaxz/2009.3.1208/TreeView.css</div><div># http://aspnet-skins.telerikstatic.com/ajaxz/2009.3.1208/Default/TreeView.Default.css</div><div># http://aspnet-skins.telerikstatic.com/ajaxz/2009.3.1208/Window.css</div><div># http://aspnet-skins.telerikstatic.com/ajaxz/2009.3.1208/Vista/Window.Vista.css</div><div># http://aspnet-scripts.telerikstatic.com/ajaxz/2009.3.1208/Common/Core.js</div><div># http://aspnet-scripts.telerikstatic.com/ajaxz/2009.3.1208/Common/jQuery.js</div><div># http://aspnet-scripts.telerikstatic.com/ajaxz/2009.3.1208/Common/jQueryPlugins.js</div><div># http://aspnet-scripts.telerikstatic.com/ajaxz/2009.3.1208/Common/Scrolling/ScrollingScripts.js</div><div># http://aspnet-scripts.telerikstatic.com/ajaxz/2009.3.1208/Common/Navigation/NavigationScripts.js</div><div># http://aspnet-scripts.telerikstatic.com/ajaxz/2009.3.1208/Menu/RadMenuScripts.js</div><div># http://aspnet-scripts.telerikstatic.com/ajaxz/2009.3.1208/Splitter/RadSplitterScripts.js</div><div># http://aspnet-scripts.telerikstatic.com/ajaxz/2009.3.1208/TreeView/RadTreeViewScripts.js</div><div># http://aspnet-scripts.telerikstatic.com/ajaxz/2009.3.1208/Common/Popup/PopupScripts.js</div><div># http://aspnet-scripts.telerikstatic.com/ajaxz/2009.3.1208/Common/Animation/AnimationScripts.js</div><div># http://aspnet-scripts.telerikstatic.com/ajaxz/2009.3.1208/Window/RadWindow.js</div><div># http://aspnet-scripts.telerikstatic.com/ajaxz/2009.3.1208/Window/RadWindowManager.js</div><div># http://aspnet-skins.telerikstatic.com/ajaxz/2009.3.1208/Default/Menu/rmSprite.png<br /></div><div># http://aspnet-skins.telerikstatic.com/ajaxz/2009.3.1208/Default/Menu/rmVSprite.png</div><div># http://aspnet-skins.telerikstatic.com/ajaxz/2009.3.1208/Common/TreeView/FirstNodeSpan.png</div><div># http://aspnet-skins.telerikstatic.com/ajaxz/2009.3.1208/Common/TreeView/TopLine.png</div><div># http://aspnet-skins.telerikstatic.com/ajaxz/2009.3.1208/Default/TreeView/PlusMinus.png</div><div># http://aspnet-skins.telerikstatic.com/ajaxz/2009.3.1208/Default/TreeView/ItemSelectedBg.png</div><div># http://aspnet-skins.telerikstatic.com/ajaxz/2009.3.1208/Common/TreeView/NodeSpan.png</div><div># http://aspnet-skins.telerikstatic.com/ajaxz/2009.3.1208/Common/TreeView/MiddleLine.png</div><div># http://aspnet-skins.telerikstatic.com/ajaxz/2009.3.1208/Common/TreeView/BottomLine.png</div><div># http://aspnet-skins.telerikstatic.com/ajaxz/2009.3.1208/Common/TreeView/SingleLine.png</div><div># http://aspnet-skins.telerikstatic.com/ajaxz/2009.3.1208/Vista/Splitter/ResizeBarVerticalSprites.gif</div><div># http://aspnet-skins.telerikstatic.com/ajaxz/2009.3.1208/Vista/Splitter/ExpandCollapseBarsCommands.gif</div></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div>
